WORTH IT
I have wonderful young Doctor Andrea Hui she suggested that I have Fraxel laser to removed unwanted precancers plus repair the other dark marks on skin on my face. i would recommend the procedure it will only take about a week to recover and your skin will get better and better over next few months.

Wow, what a transformation - your skin looks amazing! Did you find the treatment painful? Do you have any recovery tips for the community?

Ive had 3 so far. Too me it was painful. I would say a 6 from 10. That day and the next day i also have a mild headache. The pain from the actual procedure goes away after about two or so. By day 5 your skin is about 80% recovered from the procedure. By day 7 or 8 you cant even tell.

Thank you Eva, your face is numbed with a topical treatment and if needed you can get injection, there wasn't that much pain. As you can see there was some bleeding, swelling but like I said your initial healing is about a week but you continue to heal and your skin gets smother over a 6 month period. I used warm water and vinegar soaks, 16oz of water and 2 tbsp of vinegar. Then I covered my face with vaseline, did these things until I healed.

Thanks for your reply Bob :) I need to do something with my skin, I have some deep acne scars and signs of aging, so I really do appreciate you sharing your results - they are inspiring and proof that you can turn back the clock. ;)
